“Gareth of PI Plastering made a "nasty" looking Artex ceiling disappear as if by magic. He turned up when he said he would and got on with the work with no fuss and cleared up after himself. I will definitely use these people again. Very pleased with the end result.”

Highlights
“Got Gareth in to skim popcorn ceiling, and skim/feather ceiling/wall to clear up corners of the kitchen after some coving removal. Very impressed with the finish, tidiness and timeliness. Very reasonable price, too. Would 100% recommend and definitely have him back for more plastering in the future!”
“He was able to come out to do the job quickly after we moved in. Got on with the job and cleaned up afterwards. Very efficient. Good result.”
